Sweet Sacrifice

 

 

 

It's true, we're all a little insane
but its so clear
now that I'm unchained

Fear is only in our minds
taking over all the time
fear is only in our minds
but its taking over all the time

You poor sweet innocent thing
dry your eyes and testify
you know you live to break me - don't deny
sweet sacrifice

One day I'm gonna forget your name
and one sweet day,
you're gonna drown in my lost pain

Fear is only in our minds
taking over all the time
fear is only in our minds
but its taking over all the time

You poor sweet innocent thing
dry your eyes and testify
and how you love to hate me don't you, honey ?
I'm your sacrifice

[I dream in darkness
I sleep to die
erase the silence
erase my life
our burning ashes
blacken the day
a world of nothingness
blow me away]

Do you wonder why you hate ?
are you still too weak to survive your mistakes ?

You poor sweet innocent thing
dry your eyes and testify
you know you live to break me - don't deny
sweet sacrifice.

Lithium

 

 

Lithium - don't want to lock me up inside
Lithium - don't want to forget how it feels without
Lithium - I want to stay in love with my sorrow
Oh but God I want to let it go

Come to bed, don’t make me sleep alone
Couldn’t hide the emptiness you let it show
Never wanted it to be so cold
Just didn’t drink enough to say you love me

I can’t hold on to me
Wonder what’s wrong with me

Lithium - don't want to lock me up inside
Lithium - don't want to forget how it feels without
Lithium - I want to stay in love with my sorrow aaah…

Don’t want to let it lay me down this time
Drown my will to fly
Here in the darkness I know myself
Can’t break free until I let it go
Let me go

Darling, I forgive you after all
Anything is better than to be alone
And in the end I guess I had to fall
Always find my place among the ashes

I can’t hold on to me
Wonder what’s wrong with me

Lithium - don't want to lock me up inside
Lithium - don't want to forget how it feels without
Lithi - ooh ooh ooh, stay in love with mmh
Aaah… Oh God oh let it go.

Everybody's Fool

 

 

Perfect by nature
Icons of self indulgence
Just what we all need
More lies about a world that

Never was and never will be
Have you no shame don't you see me
You know you've got everybody fooled

Look here she comes now
Bow down and stare in wonder
Oh how we love you
No flaws when you're pretending
But now I know she

Never was and never will be
You don't know how you've betrayed me
And somehow you've got everybody fooled

Without the mask where will you hide
Can't find yourself lost in your lie

I know the truth now
I know who you are
And i don't love you anymore

never was and never will be
you don't know how you've betrayed me
and somehow you've got everybody fooled

It never was and never will be
You're not real and you can't save me
Somehow now you're everybody's fool

Going Under

 

 

Now I will tell you what I’ve done for you
50 thousand tears I’ve cried
Screaming deceiving and bleeding for you
And you still won’t hear me (going under)
Don’t want your hand this time I’ll save myself
Maybe I’ll wake up for once (wake up for once)
Not tormented daily defeated by you
Just when I thought I’d reached the bottom
I’m dying again

[Chorus]
I’m going under
Drowning you
I’m falling forever
I’ve got to break through
I’m going under

Blurring and stirring the truth and the lies
So I don’t know what’s real and what’s not (what’s real and what’s not)
Always confusing the thoughts in my head
So I can’t trust myself anymore
I’m dying again

[Chorus]
I’m going under
Drowning you
I’m falling forever
I’ve got to break through
I’m

So go on and scream
Scream at me I’m so far away
I won’t be broken again
I’ve got to breathe I can’t keep going under

I’m dying again

[Chorus]
I’m going under (going under)
Drowning you (drowning you)
I’m falling forever (falling forever)
I’ve got to break through
I’m going under (going under)

Going under (drowning you)
I’m going under.
